Default Cart slows down then stops

Hi I’m new to carts. I own a used 99 36v cart. My problem is the cart will be traveling when it will slow down I will push the speed pedal to the floor but it will continue to slow and come to a stop. Switch to reverse nothing happens. Switch to forward nothing happens. Wait less than a minute and press the pedal and the cart will start moving again. The aftermarket battery indicator shows 75% full It just started doing this but has done it 4 times since yesterday 9/9/18. Thanks

Is the speed controller going into thermal cut back.... next time it happens see if the controller is warm.

Thanks Scotty. Unfortunately hurricanes are approaching and work load has increased It will be a few weeks before I can attempt repairs. Where would speed controller be located on 99 ez go cart. Could it also be solenoid causing problem. A friend of mine mentioned this. He is no cart mechanic though. Thanks Scotty

Speed controller is under a black cover on the passenger side of the car, beside a rear battery. later models might have a switch labeled RUN and TOW/MAINTENANCE.

There are four bolts that require a 3/8 socket or nut driver to remove.

My 08 36v pds was doing something similar to what yours is doing. Ended up the controller was going into thermo like scotty is asking. I ordered a new alltrax from Scotty and received it in 2 days from the other side of the great U.S.OF. A. Installed it this past weekend and no more problems.

It is the controller for the cart. If you under under the site sponsor page click on cartsunlimited.

Mine did the same and upgraded the controller to an Alltrax from Carts Unlimited. Best thing I ever did. Going to upgrade to 42 volt next but the new controller made it a different machine.

Thanks! I was going to take a few more pictures when I was "done" but I guess you are never done LOL. I enjoy working on it and adding "gadgets". My last thing is I am going to box in the cargo area in the "Woodie" theme.
